Hailed by the likes of Q Magazine and CMU, she recently released ‘Parasite’, her debut EP, in October. Its three tracks – ‘Stranger In My Head’, ‘Fragile’ and ‘I Speak Words’ have a dark, compelling complexity and power that defy Fable’s young age.
With over 100,000 plays on Soundcloud within a month of her second track, "Stranger In My Head", Fable is really beginning to make waves across the internet and her live shows continue to astound with The Guardian calling her 'mesmerising'.
Lyrically Fable’s songs further intrigue, often immersing the listener in an alternative dystopian universe. All of them have a message about modern existence, human psychology, our relationship with the world and our actions and consequences. She merges storytelling with music with such deftness that there have been early mutterings likening her to the master of that art form, David Bowie.
The EP was produced by the multi million selling progressive trip hop collective Archive, with whom Fable is also writing and recording her debut album and with whom she has a real affinity creatively.
Already being hailed as “Lorde from the dark side” (Simon Price, Q Magazine, The Independent), the Brighton based Fable is a fierce new talent - forthright, opinionated, intelligent and far removed from the generic shiny pop songstresses that dominate the current music scene.
She seems set to challenge the current musical boundaries with her energetic and eerie style and a live show that promises no backing-tracks or gimmicks – just a raw, visceral and exciting experience.
Fable has also written tracks with Orbital’s Paul Hartnoll for his forthcoming album and has collaborated with Bloc Party’s Russell Lissack’s on his solo project.
With a voice reminiscent of PJ Harvey, the looks of a young Chrissy Hynde and an undeniable talent, Fable is pushing against the mainstream – and amen for that.
